TWO Battles Using The Silvershield Assassin: My Splinterlands Journey #15

avatar

One of the fun features of getting in the game of Splinterlands daily is the opportunity to earn rewards card daily! I was so please to receive the Silvershield Assassin as one of the reward cards for completing a Daily Quest in Splinterlands.

My Life Team is not really strong, and so I did not utilize them in battle as much... not until I received the Silvershield Assassin. I am more confident using the Life team now because I finally have a strong Life Monster!

I L-O-V-E the Silvershield Assasin card and always try to put her in the lineup when feasible whenever I call upon the Life Team to battle.

Notable about this Rare Life Monster card are: (1) It has Melee attack which means it will deliver attacks on the first position and (2) it comes with two abilities right from Level 1 which allows her to likewise deliver attacks from the back position! The abilities are:

  • SNEAK- targets the last enemy card.
  • DOUBLE STRIKE- attacks twice each round.

At Level 5, the Silvershield Assasin gains another great ability: POISON- attacks have a chance to apply poison, which does automatic damage to the target at the beginning of each round after the poison is applied. You will be able to observe this in my Battle No. 2 below.

* * * * *

Here are two battles that I want to feature for @splinterlands SHARE YOUR BATTLE Weekly Challenge using the Silvershield Assasin.

Battle No. 1: Ruleset- Silence Summoners/Rise of Commons; Mana- 18

In the this battle, it is impressive how the Silvershield Assassin delivered all the kill blows which eliminated each and every enemy Monster in the battlefield!

After seeing how great this card performed in the battle above, I decided to level my Silvershield Assassin to Level 5.

Battle No. 2: Rule- Unprotected; Mana-24

My general strategy is to position the Silvershield Assassin on the third or fourth position in the lineup. The Silvershield Assassin performs best at the back position.

I've used her in the second position during low Mana battles and using very low mana monsters (such as Furious Chicken or Creeping Ooze) in the first position to provide the Silvershield Assassin a couple of rounds to deliver double strikes to my opponent's Monsters.

I am a visual learner and understand better about how the cards behave and perform in battles by watching all my battles from start to finish. I hope that you enjoyed at least one of battles above and that you likewise learned something from it as much as I enjoyed sharing it with you!

In case you are interested, here are the other Splinterland Battles I previously shared.

In your comments below, please feel free let me know if you have any other suggested card positioning or drop me a tip or two that could help me and others play the game better.

It's a great card that, I did the same - levelled it up to 5 to get poison. You should try playing it with dragon plus inspire and adding in the Feral spirit. Great combo.

I totally agree with you! She is my favorite in the Life Team. Her Double Strike ability at level one is understated. I would strongly recommend any player who does not have this card to acquire even one precisely because of the two abilities she comes with from the get-go!
I will definitely try that combo... that would be an EPIC lineup! Thanks for stopping by and for the tip, @revisesociology! I appreciate you. Have a great Friday, and take care 🥰🌺🤙

Yeah, I opened my cards... it got really nice ones, and a gold card too. I think the best opening I've had so far of season reward cards. It is very encouraging! But at the back of my mind, I know that I cannot go further up unless I level up my cards. The only way to do it without is to keep playing the daily quest. But now, the rewards will change on 2/2... and I wonder how that will look. But I know that you always get gold cards, so I am assuming that you got one again in your set of season rewards!
Have a wonderful day, @stokjockey, and take care 🥰🌺🤙

I think so many of us just missed how awesome the assassin was.
I couldn't believe it either!
I also leveled up to 5 after realizing that sweet sweet poison was added.

And generally, I'd suggest to put her in 3rd or 4th too, I know she'd do awesome in the back, especially with thorns (on those snipers)... but would always worry about the snipers taking her out before she has a chance to shine.

Great post!
